Watch Google Buy FreshBooks
FreshBooks is a noteable Canadian accounting startup that is widely acknowledged to have elevated online accounting apps to a new plateau in terms of ease of use and effectiveness. They’ve got an API, a rational/cheap/flexible pricing schedule, lots of users (250k!), a blog, and a well-rounded feature set.
So, when Read/Write Web and Jay Eye Sea suggest that Google has the motivation, resources, and market opportunity to get into online accounting, I say they’re going to pull a Feedburner/YouTube and just buy the best-of-breed that’s out there already. In doing so, they’ll get a great product, and great team, and a revenue stream.
What’s stopping them?
